AfriNIC, The Regional Internet Registry for Africa, as per its mission "To serve the African community by providing professional and efficient management of Internet Number Resources, supporting Internet technology usage and development, and promoting Internet self governance" and in collaboration with national and regional IXPs, is launching an Anycast Root Server Project which aims to increase the number of instances of root servers in the African region.
The project aims at supporting well established IXPs in the African Region to deploy instances of root servers. AfriNIC will facilitate contact with Root Server Operators and provide where needed, financial and technical support for the local deployment (mainly equipment purchases and technical setup). AfriNIC will engage in one-to-one discussions with participant Root Server Operators to get the formal agreements and discuss requirements for Anycast copy deployment (these requirements can be discussed in order to make it more affordable without influencing the reliability of the node).
If you are interested in participating, please contact Ms. Lillian Sharpley at lillian@afrinic.net.
